collection reservoir in a mass.
2. When you collect only the separate collection liquid in a separate collection reservoir
and discard other waste liquid in the outside of the analyzer.
3. When you discard the separate collection liquid and other waste liquid in the outside
of the analyzer.

Please discard the separate collection liquid and other waste liquid according
with environment regulations.

1. When you collect the separate collection liquid and other waste liquid in a separate
collection reservoir in a mass.

Maintenance procedure for the detergent lines.

If you don’t use the analyzer for a long time, there is possibility that the flow pass is blocked by
alkaline detergent crystallization.
To solve the problem, please follow the below procedure if necessary.

1. In case that you don’t use the analyzer for one week.
※ We recommend to do “Special wash 1” and “Special wash 2” to clean up the
detergent lines and cells.

1) Set 30% acid in detergent position No.1 and 15% alkaline detergent in
detergent position No.2 for sample, R1 and R2 probes.

< detergent position >

NOTICE Please use an optimal detergent depending on washing type.

Electrolytic substance contamination : 30% acid detergent
Protein contamination : 15% alkaline detergent
*Be careful not to misplace the detergent.

2) Choose “Maintenance” tab and click “User Maint”.

User Maintenance screen

3) Click “Special Wash1” and “Special Wash2” button. Special Wash will be started.
(About 26 minutes.) 90 cuvettes are washed in the same procedure as measurement,
The “Special Wash 1” is used for acid detergent line.
The “Special Wash 2” is used for alkaline detergent line.
Please select proper acid or alkaline detergent wash for contamination type if you use to
cancel the contamination.

2. In case that you don’t use the analyzer for a long time

(more than two weeks)

～～～ Before stop of the analyzer～～～

*Please do "Special Wash1 and Wash 2 " by de-ionized water.

(Exchange the detergent bottle into de-ionized water bottle.）

water to each bottles.
*Set the tube cap with level sensors into the de-ionized water bottles.
*In the inside of the left side front door, there are the detergent bottles.
